Vegetarian and Vegan Meals
Every kitchen in this category cooks a fully meatless menu, so you never have to filter a mixed menu dish by dish or worry about a chicken bowl slipping into the box. Some are strictly vegan, with no dairy or eggs anywhere in the range, while others are vegetarian and cook with paneer, cheese or eggs, which matters if you avoid animal products entirely. The formats run from frozen bowls and soups to fresh weekly entrees, raw food and Indian meal kits you cook yourself. Check each listing for protein per meal, whether the food is organic, and whether you pick dishes or take a fixed weekly plan.
